First Freedom Fighter in
Whatever the motive of France in
sending Rene Robert Cavalier, Sieur
de la Salle, down the Mississippi River
from Canada in 1678, the adventurous
Frenchman himself was seeking free-
dom and a new life. From the mouth
of the river he returned not to Quebec,
as ordered, but to France .. for permis-
sion, money and colonists to establish
a colony in the newly explored region.
His fleet of four ships neared the
mouth of the Mississippi s main chan-
nel on December 19, 1684.. but La
Salle changed his course. He landed
on the coast of Texas, near Matagorda
Bay. There, in February, 1685, he
established Fort St. Louis as a base for
further explorations.
